Happened to find this great stripped-down live video, just G.E. Smith singing and playing Tele with David Lindley's classic overdriven lap steel, nearly seven minutes of excellent audio and crystal-clear video. I see from the archives that there have been a few discussions of the song. If you want to get a good close look at his vibrato, his "rasquedo" technique, and/or want to watch his left foot working the volume pedal, take a gander.

And yeah, "Tubes Rule".
Content warning: I gather that most Lindley fans know the song well; but, just in case, be advised that Warren Zevon often used frank language and some listeners might be offended by parts of this song. |

Two of my faves for sure. Was that a Gibson BR-9 he was playing? and does anyone know if he was using his trademark Dumble overdrive special?

Hi I think I found it. DVD, E G Smith 50 Watt Fuse. Both reviews say concert with Lindley is a bonus. Any one have this DVD? How much of the two and a half hours is Smith and Lindley?
Thanks Dennis |
